Thank you so much for these exposures and it's useful

[@1hackmodeller557]

Great info!

[@luneuforever8790]

I needed this video so bad. Thank you!

Steve, great videos! I’m amazed at the knowledge stored in your brain. I’m investing in silver now and I’m curious about a few things. The silver bars I’m looking at are Scottsdale 1ounce by bulk. The same bar sold in us is more expensive. Is this for real? I get very cautious about a site that isn’t very specific and description is vague. Do you know if this is bad choice. I did my masters on online crimes and I really know there . I would appreciate any advice. Please continue to make the videos, you’ve helped a lot people!

Thanks for sharing your knowledge. You probably saved me a lot of headaches!

Great breakdown of the ins and outs of buying from Alibaba! It's crucial to understand the nuances and potential challenges, especially regarding safety, ethics, intellectual property, and hidden costs to source products effectively.

The worst part of importing from China for me is the shipping and US tariffs. They really dont understand the damage that can happen in shipping. Almost every order, I have to have replacement parts sent later, which is another headache. Most of any products I order have some weight to them and are not individually packaged. One time I just went over there and hand carried it back, and it was cheaper and easier than shipping it. Most of my tariff charges went up from 0% to 35%. And they will cut any corner possible, so cut cost. Ive personally visited many of the factories, and that does make a huge difference in the relationship, but dont ever think that your guanxi will come before making a buck.

Buying off of Alibaba is difficult, my seller was great, they sent me what I ordered but it took over 5 months to get my item. I was happy to get the stuff but it was a struggle I was really afraid that I wasn't going to get my order for a while there.

[@monjurmorshed3731]

OMG , ARE U KIDDING ME? After 5 months you received your order ? Why so much delay ? And what is the solution for this , if anyone wants to buy products from Alibaba and ship it to amazon?

[@alronazz5545]

@@monjurmorshed3731you should be able to get a refund for the delay through trade assurance

[@stevenreid_youtube]

Wonderful video for anyone looking to source products from Alibaba! The practical tips on communication, verifying suppliers, and managing costs are incredibly valuable. It's great that you also addressed important questions like safety, ethical considerations, and protecting intellectual property. Definitely a must-watch for anyone venturing into e-commerce sourcing.

After I figured out how to get a shipping agent and buying directly from chinese wholesale sites, everything alibaba looks crazy expensive to me😂I also had suppliers straight up sell my custom made products to other customers or try to sell me someone else's product. it's great to get started though

I have bought a lot of eyewear parts in bulk quantities and I have never had a problem. Alibaba has done a great job of vetting suppliers when I bought from them.
